I will absolutely denigrate vendors who lag behind on driver quality and support, particularly vendors who sell expensive equipment tied to ancient and shitty drivers who can't be bothered to update them support new Windows versions.
Outside of a small set of drivers that WHQL/HLK testing may not work for, an unsigned driver means (1) the vendor doesn't care (i.e. "sold you expensive equipment and have you by the balls") and/or (2) the driver is a horrible buggy stability and security nightmare.
> A lot of us really care about the quality of our drivers and our customer's experience.
And for almost everyone, that means WHQL compliance.
